This paper analyzes the local properties of the symmetric interior penalty upwind discontinuous Galerkin method (SIPG) for the numerical solution of optimal control problems governed by linear reaction-advection-diffusion equations with distributed controls. The theoretical and numerical results presented in this paper show that for advection-dominated problems the convergence properties of the...

A method for the prediction of acoustic scatter from complex geometries is presented. The discontinuous Galerkin method provides a framework for the development of a high-order method using unstructured grids. The method's compact form contributes to its accuracy and e ciency, and makes the method well suited for distributed memory parallel computing platforms. Mesh re nement studies are presen...

Multiscale discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods are established to solve flow and transport problems in porous media. The underlying idea is to construct local DG basis functions at the coarse scale that capture the local properties of the differential operator at the fine scale, and then to solve the DG formulation using the newly constructed local basis functions instead of conventional polyno...

in this paper a new method is introduced and investigated for removing the destabilizing effects of time-delay parameter in control loops. the concept of the method is taken from the knowledge concerning the dynamic behaviour of irrational transfer functions (ir-tf), which is discussed and investigated elswhere in frequency response domain and is explained briefly here. ir-tfs, which are well c...

numerical solutions obtained by the meshless local petrov–galerkin (mlpg) method are presented for two-dimensional steady-state heat conduction problems. the mlpg method is a truly meshless approach, and neither the nodal connectivity nor the background mesh is required for solving the initial-boundary-value problem. the penalty method is adopted to efficiently enforce the essential boundary co...

The Galerkin weighted residuals method is extended solve the laminar, fully developed flow and heat transfer of Al2O3-water nanofluid inside polygonal ducts with round corners for the constant heat flux and uniform wall temperature boundary conditions. Using the method, semi-analytical, closed-form solutions are obtained for the friction coefficient and the Nusselt number in terms of the radius...

A new approach for analyzing cracked problems in 2D orthotropic materials using the well-known element free Galerkin method and orthotropic enrichment functions is proposed. The element free Galerkin method is a meshfree method which enables discontinuous problems to be modeled efficiently. In this study, element free Galerkin is extrinsically enriched by the recently developed crack-tip orthot...

The microtubes are important structures in nano electromechanical system .in this study a nonlocal model is presented to investigate the static torsion behavior of microtubes made of bi-directional factionally graded material (BDFGM) subjected to a longitudinal magnetic field. Mechanical properties of BDFGM microtube varies in the radial and longitudinal direction according to an arbitrary func...
